The meetings are an excellent opportunity to find out what is going on and to network with business leaders from a wide cross-section of industries and nationalities.

New members who receive a Certificate at Membership during the month they join the Chamber are offered the opportunity to address the meeting, with a short profile on their organization and the services offered.

All members are encouraged to attend regularly and are encouraged to support fellow member businesses and activities.

Social Events

The Chamber organizes regular “open house/mixer” evenings on the last Tuesday of every month at rotating host venues. The objective is intended to provide fellowship, camaraderie, and networking opportunities in a relaxed and informal atmosphere. These events are generally very well attended.
